Activity:

Carefully examine the specimens provided, using the hand lens or binocular microscope if necessary. Make scale diagrams of them in the space below, and try to work out what they are, giving reasons. Some of these specimens are in fact dormant stages of living organisms, which we shall attempt to study in more detail later. After you have studied these, transfer them to the containers of liquid provided, as you are instructed. Later on, there may be more to see!
